Research on the Compactness of Lunar Soil Simulant Based on Static Cone Penetration Test
Applied SciencesThe shear strength and bearing characteristics of lunar soil have a strong connection with its compactness. The compactness varies significantly with depth and has an important effect on engineering activities on the lunar surface.

Oxygen from the lunar soil by molten silicate electrolysis [PDF]
Accepting that oxygen, rather than gigantic gems or gold, is likely to make the Moon's Klondike, the extraction of oxygen from the lunar soil by molten silicate electrolysis has chosen to be investigated.
